7) looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learned from the progression of it to the full product?

As i have mentioned earlier on in my blog i found that it was harder than it looked to film a continuity piece as we couldn't get the continuity and we had to remember the 80 degree rule. It helped us as we then had them skills when it came to doing our title sequence. I didn't realise how much work you have to put in to get it right and when you are filming what shot would work best for that situation and what to have in the mise-en-scene if it works or if it makes it seem generic. Following the storyboards was a personal thing i had to learn how to do because i always forgot to stick to it and then i would get lost and then everything wouldn't work as it was jumbled up. Editing was the best thing i learned how to do i was proud of myself for what i done as it was my first time doing it but i regret leaving it to the last minute as i think it would of been done better if i had had more time. The crit lesson was really good for me as it was great to see what people thought of the finished product, even the criticism was great to hear as it meant that they paid attention and in the long run would make my product better. I have really enjoyed doing this project as i have learned so much on everything and it has been interesting learning about film distribution and looking at that side of the making of the films and not just the technical side of it.
I have regrets as i think i could of worked harder on this and left the editing to the last minute but i am really proud of the finished product.
